@senatemajldr You are a disgrace and have helped destroy one of the last public institutions people had faith in. Hope you're proud. #disgusted#VoteThemAllOut
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell: "This is a good day for America and an important day for the Senate. We stood up for the presumption of innocence. We refuse to be intimidated by the mob of people that were coming after Republican members"
Why aren't more women senators on Judiciary Committee? Chairman @ChuckGrassley: "It’s a lot of work. I mean don’t forget compared to a lot of committee meetings, we have an executive (session) for every Thursday … so it’s a lot of work. Maybe they don’t want to do it"
Merrick Garland Has Recused Himself From The Ethics Complaints Against Brett Kavanaugh
Multiple ethics complaints have been filed against Kavanaugh, including about his heated Senate testimony last week. https://t.co/fMRs67UAK5
“The situation is highly unusual,said legal experts & several people familiar w/ the matter. Never before has a Supreme Court nominee been poised to join the court while a fellow judge recommends that misconduct claims against that nominee warrant review.” https://t.co/RREG7rozch
Thank you, Dr. Ford, for your courage. Your testimony did not change the outcome — these GOP Senators were not interested in the truth — but it did change the country. You have inspired millions of Americans, women and men.
We will not forget your bravery.
Or their cowardice.
Hey @realDonaldTrump, hope you’re having fun at your rally. Too bad you’re the least popular incumbent president in modern history. And in the meantime, we are coming for your pathetic rubber-stamp Republicans in Congress in 31 days.
We're deeply disappointed in the outcome of today's Senate vote. Even though we didn't get the result we wanted – the result we needed – it's not the end of our fight.
We thank Dr. Blasey Ford and every survivor who heard the sound of their own voice this week.
This should terrify everyone.
They start by deporting the most vulnerable. Then they start asking questions about YOUR citizenship. Was your mother a citizen? What about your grandfather?
It will eventually include ANYONE hostile to the Trump regime.
This is fascism. https://t.co/ppKdCIfixx
I'm thinking that @SpeakerRyan must be very confused by the resignation of the EPA Administrator. Speaker Ryan said a few weeks ago that he had no idea about Pruitt's scandals.
Also, in the future, when people look up the definition of "complicit," they will see Ryan's picture. https://t.co/B4UuFim4ve
I just sent a letter to the heads of DHS and HHS to find out exactly what’s being done to reunite the 2,300 children who have been separated from their families at the border.
Why did @EPAScottPruitt resign?
-A free press
-Whistleblowers & unnamed sources
-Public outrage
Also, everyone knows that Ritz Carlton moisturizing lotion is overrated and not worth the cost. Scott Pruitt using taxpayer funds to get that lotion was likely the final straw. https://t.co/AI9f0A9Bn6
Since we now pay Bill Shine’s salary, feel like we’re owed a full accounting of his role in covering up nearly two decades of sexual harassment and blackmail.
BREAKING: Today, in honor of the 4th of July, we are launching an enormous campaign to make it clear Trump shouldn’t be allowed to nominate anyone to the Supreme Court until after elections. Help fund our campaign below. Share link we’ll RT. #TheResistance

Good riddance to Scott Pruitt, one of the most corrupt and widely despised members of the Trump administration. Remaining on my short list of Trump officials who need to resign (or be fired) are Stephen Miller and Betsy DeVos.
